The Department of the Premier and Cabinet (DPC) is the principal government agency in South Australia. It delivers specialist policy advice to the Premier and Ministers, supports the Cabinet process and provides direction and leadership to the South Australian Public Service.

The department leads the implementation of South Australia's Strategic Plan, has overarching responsibility for federal-state relations and drives key government initiatives across a range of services benefiting other government agencies and the community.

We work closely with these groups to develop policies and deliver programs in the areas of social inclusion, Aboriginal well-being, the arts, industrial relations, sustainability and climate change, occupational health and safety, recreation and sport, and government records access and preservation.

We support the Premier, including in his role as Minister for Social Inclusion, Minister for Arts and Minister for Sustainability and Climate Change, through providing advice on policy initiatives and developments that contribute to the government's agenda. Similarly, we also support the Minister for Federal/State Relations, the Minister for Finance, the Minister Assisting the Premier in the Arts, the Minister assisting the Premier in Cabinet Business and Public Sector Management, the Minister for the City of Adelaide, the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, the Minister for Industrial Relations, the Minister for Government Enterprises, and the Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing.

The department provides support to Cabinet, the Executive Committee of Cabinet, other Cabinet Committees, and other key structures such as the Commissioner for Social Inclusion and the Social Inclusion Board, the Government Reform Commission, the Commissioner for Public Employment, the Premier's Climate Change Council, the Capital City Committee, Government House, and the Agent General for South Australia in London.

All units are connected by our culture that respects ideas, people and results, as captured in our values of leadership, professionalism, achievement, people and collaboration.
